Chrysler’s 2015 Dodge Viper SRT as
its “Collectible Vehicle of the Future”

The Viper has won the NAHC award
four times since 2003. The NAHC

Are you a carrier of the
Tay-Sachs disease gene?
Are you a carrier of the Tay-Sachs disease gene?
Tay-Sachs disease is a rare inherited disease of the central nervous system passed from parents
to child. Both parents must be carriers of a mutation in the HEXA gene to pass the disease
on to their children. If you know that you are a carrier of this abnormal HEXA gene, we invite
you to participate in our research project.
Your participation will contribute to the knowledge gained from this research project. Knowledge
gained will be used to help others through the development of new and improved carrier
screening tests for people like you.
We are looking for 50 people known to carry the abnormal Tay-Sachs gene. We ask participants
in the project to donate about 1 tablespoon of blood for test development. Only a single visit
is required.

This year alone, 24 children have died after
being left unattended in hot cars — nearly
twice the number of cases over this time
last year. Heat stroke can happen in a mat-
ter of minutes when a child is left unat-
tended in a vehicle and is the leading cause
of all non-crash related deaths involving
children 14 and younger.
To help combat this epidemic, General
Motors announced a new technology
that can help prevent hot car deaths. The
technology is a Rear Seat Reminder fea-
ture in the 2017 GMC Acadia. It works by
notifying the driver that the rear door was
opened prior to a trip at the end of a jour-
ney, prompting the driver to simply look in
the backseat.
“So, if you’re loading your laptop, your
lunch, valuables, pets, children — we
know that you’ve used your rear doors
and that activates the system,” says Tricia
Morrow, a GMC safety expert.
When you’re done driving, you’ll hear
five chimes and see a message on your
driver information center alerting you to
look in the rear seat.
The Rear Seat Reminder feature will be
standard in all of the 2017 Acadias and is
coming soon to other GM vehicles.
